COMING SOON! Ridstar YVY C20 Lite 1000w

When the Sähköpyörätehdas test team got their hands on the Ridstar YVY C20 Lite e-bike, expectations were high. The bike was immediately put to the test in a variety of riding conditions: city streets, gravel roads, uphill climbs, and longer rides. Within the first few kilometers, it became clear that this model is designed for riders who want to combine powerful electric assistance, a good range, and a stable riding experience all in one package.

A powerful electric bike for everyday use and leisure

The Ridstar YVY C20 Lite features a powerful 48V electrical system, which allows the bike to accelerate smoothly and ride effortlessly even in more challenging conditions. The 48V 15Ah lithium battery provides a good range for commutes, city riding, and longer recreational rides.

The bike's 48V high-speed brushless motor provides powerful and smooth assistance. Uphills, headwinds, and heavier loads don't feel the same as they do on a regular bike; instead, the ride remains light and controlled.

Opinions and Recommendations from the Electric Bike Factory

From an electric bike manufacturer’s perspective, the Ridstar YVY C20 Lite is an extremely versatile option for users looking for a powerful, durable, and practical electric bike. The bike’s strengths include, in particular, its long range, sturdy construction, and powerful motor.

Mechanical disc brakes at the front and rear provide safety and control at various speeds and in varying conditions. The bike is well-suited for both city riding and lighter off-road and gravel riding.

The manufacturer specifies a maximum load of approximately 150 kg, making the bike a sturdy option even for heavier riders or situations where you’re carrying more cargo.

Range and Performance

According to the manufacturer, the Ridstar YVY C20 Lite offers a range of approximately 35–50 km in pure electric mode and approximately 60–80 km with pedal assist. Actual range always depends on the rider’s weight, riding style, terrain, temperature, tire pressure, and the level of pedal assist used.

According to the manufacturer, the bike's top speed is approximately 45 km/h. The speed and range were tested with a rider weighing approximately 75 kg on a flat surface, with no wind, and under ideal conditions.

This service ensures that your e-bike is in top condition and ready for safe riding.

Annual Maintenance

Annual maintenance includes even more comprehensive procedures: battery testing, drivetrain cleaning, tire inflation and replacement, chain lubrication, and inspections and updates of all electrical systems. We recommend annual maintenance regardless of how often you use your e-bike, to ensure it remains in top technical condition and safe to ride all year round.

We keep our maintenance costs competitive. The price for an initial service starts at 90 EUR, and a comprehensive annual service costs 149 EUR (including 25.5% VAT).
